Welcome to the AI Toolkit NLP Tutorial! This section will cover the basic concepts and components of Natural Language Processing (NLP) that you need to know.
What is NLP?
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a field of artificial intelligence that focuses on the interaction between computers and humans through natural language. It involves the ability of computers to understand, interpret, and generate human language.
NLP Components
- Text Preprocessing: This is the first step in NLP, where raw text is cleaned and prepared for further analysis. It includes tasks such as tokenization, stemming, and lemmatization.
- Sentiment Analysis: This involves determining the sentiment of a piece of text, such as whether it is positive, negative, or neutral.
- Named Entity Recognition (NER): This is the process of identifying and classifying named entities in text, such as people, organizations, and locations.
- Machine Translation: This is the process of translating text from one language to another using machine learning algorithms.
Example
Here's a simple example of how NLP can be used:
- Input: "I love dogs."
- Output: Sentiment: Positive
